A direct variation function contains the points (2, 14) and (4, 28). Which equation represents the function?

1 answer:

4 0

A direct variation has a constant slope, i.e. (y/x)= constant.

Both of the given two points give a slope of (y/x)=14/2=28/4=7, so the equation of the function is
y/x=7, or simply
y=7x

Ok I’m going to try to explain this the best I can so 2•3=6 to get from 6 to 4 you need to subtract 2 and then 4•3=12 and 12-2= 10
So the pattern is multiply by 3 and subtract by 2

Answer:

First question: LCL = 522, UCL = 1000.5

Second question: A sample size no smaller than 418 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

First question:

Lower bound:

0.36 of 1450. So

0.36*1450 = 522

Upper bound:

0.69 of 1450. So

0.69*1450 = 1000.5

LCL = 522, UCL = 1000.5

Second question:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
